unlock from cgi-bin

TroyP

I have a cgi task that as two unlock commands in it to unlock files attached to a workflow. The cgi does other things which work fine.

Only the unlock commands are NOT working.

this script was developed by IWOV Prof. Services and nobody has touched it until now.

This is the unlock command they have:
my $unlockresult = `$iwhome/bin/iwunlock $iwmount$workarea/$f 2&>1`;

When I $unlockresult is empty when printed.
When I print $iwhome/bin/iwunlock $iwmount$workarea/$f and run the command in a Putty session (as master) the command unlocks the files.

iwts is also a master user on the system.

I realize that I should do this as a separate step in WF but until I get a change request approve to update my WF I would like to know what is wrong.

When you are running the command in Putty - are you running both the CGI task and the iwunlock from the command line, or are you getting the printed command from being run as a cgitask in the workflow and just running the iwunlock command from putty?

Also - are you running the CGI script via iwcgi_wrapper.cgi?
